Forgiveness 

I see no alternative but to forgive 

to release this pain where it lives 

 there is nothing else to do

but look within where there's a higher truth


and all the questions and time 

spent wondering why 

spin in an endless circle 

which would never free the mind


so I ask God to send some light

so it is possible to see 

past the darkness to find

the path to that door of peace opening in me


so we have the strength to begin 

to receive the love we need

to continue on this long journey 

and break the chains that bind humanity 


and with a breath of forgiveness 

comes some understanding of this life 

and the words from my heart carry a prayer 

For God to help us end the suffering on Earth here
